This might be a stupid question - getting used to that in an area where I feel I can keep learing more until I "check out" in x amount of years...

Anyway - I just installed LM12 LXDE in my netbook after having played with LMDE with LXDE on top for a couple of months. (I keep on hoping for an iso with the combination LMDE - LXDE)Now, after tinkering with it for a couple of days - installing all the apps I want, setting up Cairo Dock instead of the LX Panel and so on I thought I'd see what I could do with this guide: http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/374

But - even though I seem to have the right components installed, Openbox do not come up as one of the options on the login screen.So... What is this noob missing?

Exactly, and I wanted the option to boot into something without all the "extra" lxde-stuff added... not for permanent use but for "practice" and learning.I'll see if I try out your suggestion to remove and reinstall openbox later... right now I'm between internet companies on my landline leaving me with an android phone acting as internet connection/router so I have to wait a few days before I do anything. (One would think that changing from one provider to another would happen instantly, but that's not always the case in Spain.. )
